The ORCASat pass planner application was built to facilitate planning passes for the upcoming week. Since the pass times shift every day, it is convenient to have a snapshot of the upcoming week’s passes so that you can determine when operators need to be available.

At the SFU Satellite Design Team, we are taking part in the Canadian Satellite Design Challenge. As part of the challenge, we were offered the chance to put some of our hardware in a proton beam at the TRIUMF facility, Canada’s national lab for nuclear and particle physics.
